5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
IS F_EE
If your vehicle has to be stopped in an emergency
CAUTION
If the engine has to be turned off while driving
Power assist for the brakes and steering wheel will be lost, making the brake
pedal harder to depress and the steering wheel heavier to turn. Decelerate as
much as possible before turning off the engine.
Only in an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the
vehicle in the normal way, stop the vehicle using the following proce-
dure:
Steadily step on the brake pedal with both feet and firmly
depress it.
Do not pump the brake pedal repeatedly as this will increase
the effort required to slow the vehicle.
Shift the shift lever to N.
If the shift lever is shifted to N
After slowing down, stop the vehicle in a safe place by
the road.
Stop the engine.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted to N
Keep depressing the brake pedal with both feet to reduce
vehicle speed as much as possible.
Stop the engine by pressing
and holding the “ENGINE
START STOP” switch for 3
consecutive seconds or more.
